Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC)
The Challenge of Compliance and Data Governance
of breaches are due to inadequate data protection
Organizations that collect, process, or transfer personal and business data are required to operate within a strict and continuously evolving regulatory framework, where transparency and compliance are mandatory.
To meet these requirements, specific policies, procedures, and security controls must be implemented. At the same time, responsibility for compliance does not remain solely within the organization, but also extends to partners and third parties involved in data management.

What Is the Right Solution?
Compliance is not simply about adhering to regulations. The right solution is to truly understand regulatory requirements, integrate them into daily operations, and continuously monitor evolving obligations.
Regulations are not an obstacle — they provide a structured framework for governance, transparency, and risk reduction. A comprehensive compliance and data governance strategy ensures that:
-
Regulatory requirements relevant to your organization are fully understood
-
Clear policies, procedures, and data governance controls are implemented
-
Roles, responsibilities, and accountability mechanisms are clearly defined
-
Compliance is continuously monitored in line with evolving regulatory requirements
-
Legal, operational, and regulatory risks are significantly reduced
Effective compliance is not about simply “avoiding fines” — it is about operating with transparency, control, and resilience in an increasingly demanding regulatory environment.
How Exposed Is My Organization to Regulatory Risk?
Many organizations believe they are compliant simply because they have policies and procedures in place. The real question, however, is: do you truly know your level of exposure?
A regulatory risk assessment reveals:
-
Compliance gaps in relation to regulatory frameworks (GDPR, ISO, NIS2, etc.)
-
Incomplete or undocumented data governance measures
-
Weaknesses in processes, controls, and oversight mechanisms
-
Risks arising from third parties and external service providers
Understanding your actual position is the first step toward meaningful compliance and the reduction of regulatory and operational risk.
How Do I Build a Sustainable Compliance Framework?
Compliance is not a one-time project — it is an ongoing process that must be integrated into the daily operations of the organization.
A sustainable compliance framework is built on:
-
Clear understanding of the regulatory requirements applicable to your organization
-
Defined policies, procedures, and assigned responsibilities
-
Continuous monitoring and periodic compliance assessments
-
Employee training and strengthening of governance culture
-
Documentation and evidence-based compliance mechanisms
True compliance goes beyond avoiding penalties — it strengthens transparency, credibility, and the long-term resilience of your organization.
Our Services
Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC) is not merely a formal obligation. It forms the framework within which an organization makes decisions, protects its data, and operates with transparency and accountability. We help you build a structured and sustainable governance and compliance framework aligned with regulations such as GDPR, NIS2, ISO 27001, NIST, and other international standards. We translate regulatory requirements into practical policies, procedures, and controls that can be effectively applied in day-to-day operations.
Governance Framework & Roles of Responsibility
For an organization to operate effectively, it must be clear who makes decisions, who oversees them, and who holds responsibility.
We help you establish a clear and practical governance framework, where roles, responsibilities, and processes are well defined across the organization. This reduces ambiguity, prevents mistakes, and integrates security into decision-making — not as an obstacle, but as a management tool.
Enterprise Risk Management
Every business faces risks. The real question is not whether they exist, but whether you understand and manage them.
We work with you to identify what may impact your operations — from technological risks to regulatory obligations — and help you prioritize what truly matters. This allows you to focus on critical risks rather than noise.
Compliance with Regulations & Standards
Regulations such as GDPR, NIS2, or ISO 27001 are often perceived as a burden. In reality, they provide a structured framework that helps organizations operate in a more organized and secure way.
We guide you in understanding what truly applies to your organization and how to implement it practically — without unnecessary complexity or bureaucracy.
Policies, Procedures & Control Frameworks
Security and compliance cannot rely on informal instructions. They require clear policies and structured procedures.
We design or improve your security policies and internal controls so they are understandable, practical, and aligned with your operations. The result is a consistent and structured approach to governance and compliance.
Third-Party & Vendor Risk Management
Your organization’s security does not depend solely on you. Partners, suppliers, and third parties can directly impact your exposure to risk.
We assess the security and compliance posture of third parties and help you define clear requirements and controls to reduce supply chain and external risk.
Audit Readiness & Ongoing Support
An audit should not create stress. With proper preparation, it becomes a confirmation process rather than a disruption.
We support your organization before, during, and after internal or external audits, assisting with documentation, evidence collection, and gap remediation where needed. At the same time, we help strengthen a culture of continuous compliance and improvement.
Frequently Asked Questions
Organizations across Europe often have similar questions when it comes to cybersecurity, compliance, and regulatory requirements. Here are some of the most common ones.
What is cybersecurity, and do we actually need it as a business?
Cybersecurity refers to the set of practices, tools, policies and controls that protect computers, networks, data and digital systems from unauthorized access, damage and attacks. Every business that uses information systems or stores data — even small companies — faces cyber risks that can disrupt operations, cause financial loss, or damage reputation. Modern regulation and market expectations increasingly treat cybersecurity as a business necessity, not just a technical concern.
Is the European Union forcing organizations to implement cybersecurity?
Yes. The European Union has introduced binding laws to strengthen the cybersecurity of organizations operating in Europe. One of these is the NIS2 Directive (EU 2022/2555), which sets common cybersecurity requirements for a wide range of sectors and obliges Member States to enforce them. NIS2 was adopted at EU level and must be applied by all EU countries, including Greece.
Is cybersecurity mandatory in Greece, and which laws apply to us?
In Greece, the EU directives have been legally implemented into Greek law. For cybersecurity, Law 5160/2024 transposes the NIS2 Directive into Greek legislation and requires compliance from entities meeting certain criteria, such as operating in critical sectors or providing essential services. Greece has also established a National Cybersecurity Authority (NCSA) to supervise and enforce compliance. Additionally, GDPR is an EU regulation directly applicable in Greece and across the European Economic Area, imposing obligations on how personal data is processed and protected.
How can we know if our organization must follow specific cybersecurity requirements?
Under NIS2 / Greek Law 5160/2024, compliance depends on:
Sector: Entities in critical or essential sectors (energy, transport, healthcare, digital infrastructure, etc.) are automatically in scope.
Size & role: Medium and large organizations (e.g., >50 employees and >€10M turnover) can also be required to comply.
Service impact: If your services are vital for the economy or society, you may be included.
Regulatory guidance and registration with the National Cybersecurity Authority (NCSA) in Greece will clarify obligations.
What is NIS2?
NIS2 (Network and Information Security Directive 2, Directive (EU) 2022/2555) is the European Union’s updated cybersecurity law. It sets a common, higher level of cybersecurity requirements across the EU for an expanded list of sectors and organizational types, replacing the earlier NIS Directive. NIS2 includes risk management, incident reporting, governance, supply chain security and stronger supervisory and enforcement powers. Member States, including Greece, must transpose it into national law and enforce it.
What is GDPR?
GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation, Regulation (EU) 2016/679) is an EU data protection law that regulates how personal data of individuals in the EU and EEA must be handled. It applies to any organization that processes personal data — regardless of location — if it offers goods/services to EU residents or monitors their behaviour. GDPR requires lawful data handling, protects individual rights, and includes strong security expectations and fines for non-compliance.
